Okay, one day after switching to Handcent (and removing locale) and my improvements were marked. Instead of complaining and 10% battery by noon I still had 23% left last night when I went to bed. I believe it was about 13 hours; also I ran Waze to and from work and loaded a lot of web pages. I'm fully convinced I've applied "The Fix".
That said, the "Messages" process still runs when I boot and I do not kill it. I did go into Manage Applications and clear Defaults as well as Data. Reboot. Then I opened a contact, selected Handcent as my default SMS app. Rebooted to be safe...
I do receive incoming SMS and everything is peachy. Here are the settings I have in my Handcent app:
SMS Receive Setting
Enable popup: True
Popup settings: Screen on for popup: True
Notifications: True
